- Git now.

- Are you okay with all this?

- All what?

- I mean, going out to the camp.

- Absolutely.

Why?

- Everything's

all been arranged?

- Megan, what's the deal?

Seriously, what's up?

- That guy and the little

boys just freaked me out.

It's like they

don't want us here.

- Sure they do.

- So, it's just me?

- I mean, yeah, it's a

little different out here.

But, people say

that about New York.

- I don't know.

I'm just a little

unsure about all this.

- Megan.

Come on, don't be low.

- I know, it's just...

- Okay.

So, there's a few colorful

locals out there, you know.

That's just part of it.

It's just like the

sky and the water.

It's all wild, and

it's the everglades.

Didn't you have a

blast last night?

- Yes.

- Okay.

Well, you guys, these

places are dying out.

Like, it's all being

built up by condos.

You know, we may never get

another chance like this.

We're gonna remember this trip

for the rest of our lives.

So, you guys in?

- Of course.

- Guys, is that our ride?

(chortling)

- Is that an airboat?

- Oh my God.

That's what we're taking?

- That's awesome.

(light music)

- What are we doing?

- I've never been on

one of these before.

- Pick yourself a spot.

There you go.

And, you're gonna be

up top with me today.

- Oh fun.

- Alright, let's go.

You girls hang on,

and enjoy the ride.

- Thank you.

- Here we go.

- Woo-hoo.

(chuckling)

- What about seat belts?

- You just hang on to the side.

- I feel like we're on Safari.

- Here we go girls.

- It's so fricking loud.

- I can't hear you guys.

- Some people go forward.

(country instrumental)

- Hey, it's a gator.

- Oh, there.

- Hang on.

Welcome to 4,000 square

miles of fun and bugs.

Don't we all like

having our fun?

I got a few ideas.

Some of them might

even be legal.

- Yee-haw.

- How far out is camp anyway?

- Ah, we're close.

About 17 miles.

Now, we're getting in deep.

- Hey, Kat, this is

looking a little creepy.

- How crazy is this?

- Water's awful low

for this time of year.

- Is that a good thing?

- Yeah, if you like big gators.

- How am I supposed

to call home?

- She'll be fine.

(slow twangy music)

- Don't forget to

follow the map.

Stay on the trails, and it'll

keep you out of trouble.

- Yeah, I got it.

- We're good.

- This is home for the night.

Should be everything you need

right here waiting on you.

- Thank you.

- You all have fun?

- Yes.

That was cool.

- It's sure been a pleasure.

Let me get your bags.

- That was awesome huh?

- That was cool.

- Alright, you girls know to

watch yourselves out here.

A lot of hogs, gators, snakes,

and a few two-legged vermin

running around here too.

Y'all take care.

And, I'll see you in a few days.

- Bye.

(slow twangy music)

- I swear this is

better than any old

five star rack in Houston.

- Yeah, nice job, Ange.

- To the chef.

And to Danny for making sure

we have this key

to our survival.

- You think he's single?

- I think you should find out.

- Maybe I will.

- I just loved

his little accent.

- Tell you what, in

this crazy world,

you got a cowboy by your side,

I think you're

doing pretty good.

(sighs)

- Okay, you guys,

I gotta tell you;

this is pretty cool.

I mean, I feel really connected.

- You see, this is

what I'm talking about.

- Couldn't you believe the

fricking snakes, though?

- And, you and your spa.

- You know what's

really amazing?

None of our daily lives,

schedules or routines;

none of that really

matters out here.

- It really is like

a whole other world.

I mean, I don't even remember

what a car horn sounds like.

(laughs)

- You guys think we'll keep

getting together for our trips?

- Sure.

Why wouldn't we?

- I don't know.

You know, it just seems like

people drift apart, you know.

I mean, look at Derek and me.

- Ange, you guys were so

young when you got married.

I mean, you can't

really know what

you want out of

life at that age.

- Yeah Ange, I mean,

you both were going in different

directions, that's all.

- Maybe that's what this

whole survival thing is about.

You have something

to prove to yourself.

- He never let me take the shot.

- What?

- Derek.

He never let me take the shot.

You know, I could always

track better than any guy.

So, I'd always take

the position to track.

You know, I'd put them

in position, and then

he always took the damn shot.

You know what the

worst part was?

It's always yours.

You just let them.

- So, all your hunting,

you never really shot anything?

- Well, you know, little stuff.

Nothing that matters.

- Let me tell you.

I know I wouldn't be

able to kill anything.

- Oh, me either.

- Hey, all I was asking is

whether we'd keep getting

together for our trips.

- I say we all swear on it.

Deal?

Let's all promise to

never drift apart.

- I will never ditch you guys.

- Thank you.

- Me either.

(laughing)

- Oh, I love you girls.

- Okay, so

Alex and I are

gonna have a baby.

- What?

That is so cool.

- No way.

- Yeah.

Look, he really wants a boy.

- Oh my God.

That's so great, Kat.

And, better you than me.

That's for sure.

- We're gonna start trying

as soon as I get home.

- Well, you're gonna

be a great mom.

(sighs)

- Well, you guys,

nature calls.

I'll be back.

- Hey.

Pee at your own risk.

- Yeah, be careful.

(suspenseful music)

- How much wine did you have?

(chuckles)

(zipper)

- What happened?

I leave, and the party dies?

- Dude, I'm seriously tired.

- Yeah, we're really beat.

- Come on, wild women.

- Hey.

We have to get our

beauty sleep, Angie.

- You guys are such wimps.

- Angie.

I know I've been like the queen

worrier since we got here.

But, we all think

this is really great.

- Yeah.

Way cool.

We never would've done

anything like this.

- Yeah, no kidding.

I figure somebody's gotta

keep things interesting.

Right?

You know, I guess after Derek,

I did wanna take

something on, you know.

Something bigger than me.

I just didn't wanna do it alone.

You guys are all I have.

- You're gonna make it.

- Absolutely.

- Alright, you guys sleep tight.

- Hey.

Do you want any company?

- No.

I'm just gonna

check on the fire.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah.

- Goodnight.

- Love you guys.

Goodnight.

(fire crackling)

(bleating)

You guys.

Megan, Kat.

I hear something.

Hurry!

Grab the light.

Something's out there.

(grunting)

Run!

(screaming)

(shrieking)

(bleating)

- Oh my God!

(screaming)

- Oh my God!

(screaming)

- Angie, get up!

Get up here.

(grunting)

- You are crazy.

You could've killed yourself.

- I think I got him.

- Oh, I hope so.

- I think I got him.

- You are insane.

I can't believe you.

- Now what?

Now what?

Are we gonna sleep in the tree?

- I'm not sleeping

in a fricking tree.

- Are you nuts?

- Let's go back to camp.

- It's not going anywhere.

It's staying with us.

- Are you guys sure you don't

wanna check out the shot?

- Angela.

Please.

Don't you think we've

had enough for one night?
